Hours before Nelson Mandela was due to join
the curtain-raising of the World Cup in South Africa, he received
news that his 13-year-old great-granddaughter, Zenani, was killed
in a car crash. Zenani Mandela was on her way home from a concert
in Soweto to celebrate the opening of the tournament when her car
was struck by a drunk driver. Now, the 91-year-old former president
will skip the World Cup celebration in order to grieve with his
family—much had been made originally about the importance of his
presence in the stadium. "It would therefore be inappropriate for
him to personally attend the 2010 Fifa World Cup opening
celebrations," a statement from his foundation
said.
